Whole Wheat Sourdough Baguettes #2

Same recipe/method as last time, making 3 instead of two. I’m trying my best not to rush it this time. I used starter that was fed last night, so it had started to deflate.

Started 7:45am

150g starter
150g whole wheat flour
300g bread flour

Combine and autolyse 20 min.

Add 7.5g himalayan pink salt.

Knead in stand mixer with dough hook about 5 min.

Cover with towel and let rest 1 hour. Do a few stretch & folds and let rest another hour. Another set of stretch & folds. Transferred to fridge at about 11am.

Removed from fridge at around 8am. Wasn’t fully doubled yet. By about noon it was very puffy. At around 2 I shaped the baguettes and preheated the oven to 450°F. Baked over steam tray for 25 minutes.

These are delicious. So soft and fluffy.
